Opening a fantastic selection of gardens across Scotland to raise money for hundreds of charities

Our gardens are currently closed while we support our community through this pandemic. We will open again when it is safe to do so. In the meantime, please visit our website ‘What’s New’ pages, view our garden photographs, sign up for our newsletter, engage with our social media channels and if you can, make a donation to help us support our 2020 charities.

Highlands Garden

The garden is in two parts. The upper garden is mostly a rockery, with a large selection of plants, shallow pond, seating area and newly built polycrub and greenhouse with fruit and vegetables. The lower garden is on a steep slope with a spectacular sea view over the village of Scalloway. There is a path to lead visitors around and the garden features a large collection of plants, vegetable patch, deep pond and pergola. It was awarded a Shetland Environmental Award in 2014 for its strong theme of recycling. The owner also has an art studio which you are most welcome to visit when you view the garden.

Directions: Follow the A970 main road towards the village of Scalloway. Near the top of the hill heading towards Scalloway take a sharp turn to the left, signposted Easterhoull Chalets. Follow the road to chalets (painted blue with red roofs) and you will see the yellow SGS sign for the garden. Bus 4 from Lerwick/Scalloway.
